It’s the first time I’ve felt this emptiness;
it’s the first time, being in your arms.
It’s the first time I cannot talk to you.
It’s the last time I’ll ever love you, tonight.
It has been great; I know it was perfect,
But I have changed and all I thought was right,
Suddenly, it doesn’t seem to fit.
Tonight I cry and say goodbye.
It’s the first time I’ve thought you’re not the one,
It’s the first time I’ve been able to breathe other air,
It’s the first night I’ve needed another tongue
to lick my bones and rouse my heart.
It’s the first time that being loved by you
Is making me feel alone and trapped.
I cannot help it; I’ll break your soul tonight
With words not-spoken and tears in my eyes.
Let me think, let me explain.
Let me go and forgive me if I fail.
Let me think, let me feel your absence,
and know if I miss you enough.
It's the first time I've felt this emptiness.
It's the first time I've thought you're not the one.
It's the last time I'll ever kkiss you, this way.
Tonight I say goodbye.
